A UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1998, Urbino is the artistic capital of the Marche region. It is located on soft hills that reach out to touch the Adriatic Sea. This small town experienced great development, especially artistic and cultural development in the 15th century thanks to the patronage of Federico da Montefeltro and his son Guidubaldo, transforming a medieval village into a thriving princely court. A visit to the town and its surroundings is a must for anyone in the area.
